ICT based dissemination of Agro-met Advisory
Farmers
look for a on-demand advisory through ICT route. Follow up for an SMS received
by them with close loop in the information advisory and contact mechanism.
Farmer’s further demand crop specific SMS. Management of crop specific data is
a challenge due to change in cropping patterns. Decoding SMS in a regional
language is an issue with few farmers. All these can be achieved through
digital platform like
- SMS / IVRS to relatively much larger number of farmers.
- Modernize Agrimet website to make it more interactive
- Multi-platform back end: Web based and front end.
- Multi Linkages among Agri Experts, Knowledge Institutions,
Services Providers, etc.
- ICT based agricultural information dissemination models.
- Media Lab Asia: An Interactive Information Dissemination System (IIDS)
- Agri-met Domain linked to websites of other Ministries viz: Rural,
Panchayati Raj, etc
